Chapter 50: Du Qingchen's Guilt
On weekdays, Du Wulang goes to fetch water for Du Changshun every day, and has a good relationship with his grandfather Du Changshun's family. Now Du Changshun's son Du Qingchen happens to be teaching in the county seat, and now that he has rare things, he sent two to Du Qingchen and gave them a try.
asked for the address, and the uncle of the Yang family looked for it and checked the correct house number before knocking on the door.
The one who opened the door was Du Qingchen's daughter-in-law Zhou, the daughter of a small landlord, who was shrewd, but people were not powerful, every time someone from the countryside came over, she would be warmly entertained, and her reputation was also very good.
It just so happened that Du Qingchen was at home today, and when he heard that his cousin's eldest brother was here, he thought that something had happened to Dashan's daughter-in-law's family!
This Du Qingchen and his four cousins, the best relationship is Du Dashan.
Dashan went to be a soldier, and he took silver to Dashan back then, and Dashan had a good face, so he didn't want to say anything. This soldier did not come back, leaving behind his wife and children. Sometimes I listen to my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatting, and I know that Dashan's wife is not having a good time. In addition to explaining to his mother and relatives on weekdays, there is no other way to help the big mountain wife and the young.
Du Qingchen knew the uncle of the Yang family, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Yang, it's hot outside, hurry up and drink herbal tea to rest for a while, and we'll have a few cups later." β
The uncle of the Yang family saw that although Du Qingchen was a scholar, it was the same as when he was young and did not be admitted to Xiucai, and he did not look down on him with such muddy legs, and said with a smile: "Then I will bother today, come today, there is nothing to do, it is just that a few children in my sister's family have planted watermelons, which taste good, so let me send a few to your husband and wife to cool off." β
These relationships may not be needed now, but they will always be used in the future. The father said that Du Changhe respected his only brother very much, so Yang Fugui told his two sons more than once to befriend Du Changhe's family.
The two baskets were covered with grass, Zhou didn't see what was in it just now, I heard that it was a watermelon, I was very surprised, this watermelon was on the market really early, half a month earlier.
A six- or seven-year-old boy on the side is Du Qingchen and Du Xinwu, the only son of the Zhou family, who almost drooled when he heard the watermelon.
"Mother, I want to eat watermelon, I want to eat watermelon." Du Xinwu tugged at his mother's clothes and said coquettishly.
There is only one child in the family, and everything will try to satisfy the child. It's just that the guest hasn't left yet, so how can she eat what the guest sent now?
Zhou's embarrassment, how can he let him eat the things sent in front of the guests, it can be seen that his son is like this, and he is very distressed, in the summer, his son can't eat, and he loses a lot of weight.
Du Qingchen felt that it was all his own family, and there was no need to see outside, so he said: "Since it was sent by Brother Yang, we are not welcome, cut the watermelon, and we will all eat it together." β
"Yes, it's sent to you to cool off, it's hot today, children can eat if they want, don't be polite." The uncle of the Yang family persuaded and explained, children, it's all like this.
Zhou was slightly embarrassed and said, "Thank you to the eldest brother of the Yang family." β
Waiting for the Zhou family to take the child down, Du Qingchen said softly: "Let the eldest brother of the Yang family smile, the child is small and ignorant." β
"Even if the child is small, don't worry about it. By the way, I saw the uncle of the Du family yesterday, the aunt, and your body is good, so don't worry about your family. Gorou, this child, is as filial as his father, except for being injured some time ago, he goes to the uncle early every morning, and the aunt picks up a large vat of water. "Uncle Yang didn't come this time just to give watermelons, but also to catch up with Du Qingchen, so that he knew what to expect.
Du Wulang often carries water for the family, and he knows it, so he feels more sorry for the four children in Dashan. But what happened when you got hurt?
"How could Gorou get hurt?" Du Qingchen asked with concern, a few days ago, the family brought a letter over, saying that the Dashan family had come out separately, and it was relatively hot during this time, so there was no time to go back, but he just wrote a letter to his home, and he hadn't received a reply yet.
The uncle of the Yang family sighed softly and said, "It's not that I was bulliedγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
The uncle of the Yang family originally told Du Qingchen that Du Dahai's family conspired to let the seventh sister go to be a concubine for Du Simei, and the matter of the adults at the door of the Yang family. In the end, the seven-foot man of the Yang family's uncle had red eyes.
Du Qingchen's complexion was red for a while, white for a while, and finally turned iron blue.
"Nadu Dahai, he is really a good skill, he not only wants to sell his daughter, but also wants to sell his niece!" Du Qingchen slapped the table and said hatefully. When the second uncle came to beg him to help his two cousins find a job in the city, he didn't want to find the selfish Du Dahai and Du Dahe, and wanted to find Du Dashan, but the aunt resolutely disagreed with Du Dashan to work in the county seat, and let her two sons make mud legs.
The family couldn't do it, so he found a job for his two cousins, Du Dahai was arranged in the Liu family's restaurant, and Du Dahe was arranged in the Zhou family's grocery store
Fortunately, the two brothers were quite diligent and often came to the house to sit. But since Oyama went to serve as a soldier, he reprimanded his two cousins for the behavior of Iron Rooster, and since then, neither of them has come. Just thinking about it makes him angry.
When it comes to farming, there will be a holiday in the school, and he has to go back.
"Yes, my sister has no other thoughts, she just wants to raise Gorou, Hachiro, Seventh Sister, Ninth Sister, and live in the Du family wholeheartedly, but they are one after another bad tricks to torture orphans and widows, and their conscience is really bad." The uncle of the Yang family scolded hatefully, "Wulang is only thirteen years old, and he can't get out of bed by them, and the seventh sister is almost crazy because of them." β
When Du Qingchen heard this, he was very uncomfortable, and said sourly: "Brother Yang, I'm sorry, I promised Dashan back then that I would take care of my nephews and nieces, but I haven't gone back all these years, and I haven't helped, and after half a month of vacation, I will talk to my second uncle about it, and I can't let them do the next thing." β
The uncle of the Yang family listened to Du Qingchen speak like this, and relaxed slightly, finally the Du family still has someone who understands, hey, why doesn't Dashan have such a brother?
"With the words of the Du family brothers, I am relieved. After all, we are outsiders, and there are some things that we can't meddle in even if we are angry, we can only help a little favor, and in the future, Gorou and Hachiro will want you to help more. Uncle Yang said with emotion, with such a big uncle, maybe Gorou will take fewer detours in the future.
"I'm their uncle, so naturally I won't ignore Gorou and Hachiro." Du Qingchen assured that it was not only to help Goro and Hachiro, but also to think about Goro, Hachiro and the son at home get along well, and they can take care of them in the future.
This is also the meaning of his father Du Changshun, their life is good, but the heirs are thin, there are no other siblings in the family, and they only have a son in middle age, which is the same age as Hachiro, too thin.
